[R] tournaments to dendrograms

I've had no response to the enquiry below, so I made a rather half-baked
version in grid  --  code and pdf are available here:

comments would be welcome.   This is _the_  ubiquitous graphic this  
time of
year in the US, so R should take a shot at it.  My first attempt is  
rather primitive
but I have to say that Paul's grid package is  superb.
